People like you (quoted) do not understand real trouble; not here, nor your neck of the woods. People who will scare this guy by saying he will get deported or such are assholes who also do not understand the law, the police or the system.
In this case the law has not been involved, and if at anytime it does get involved then I suggest the guy contacts me for some advice on how to handle the situation.
I would suggest that the women "works" for the resturant and tricks punters into paying an over inflated bill a few times a week. Most likely gets a 30% cut of the mug.
I would also suggest this is why the resturant will not persue after getting its Y4000. Some you win some you loose.
This is why I recommend to let the action play out and see if the resturant really comes after you. I bet it won't.
And even if it does, they can not persue you for any more then the original bill (I hope you kept a copy), ie. being negligent in paying a non specific agreement is like farting in a toilet.
Point. Did they say when you must pay and what amount you must pay, did they say how?
This is not an agreement so you are not obliged to follow rules that do not exist.
To the OP...
You know you were a dick for picking up a person from a dating site. You were lucky you didn't wake up in the gutter with a sore arse, or stiches where your kidney should be.
Never do that shhh again!!!

I think it is you that does not understand the law or the police in this country. Not paying his bill at the restaurant is a crime. Is it so hard to believe that the owners sympathize with what happened to him, and are being nice and giving him a chance to pay back the bill. If they have information about him, and he chooses to skip out on the rest of the bill they very well could call the police, and then he most definitely would be up shit creek without a paddle.
How can you even think you are giving good advice to him? You are telling him to act like an ass to the people (owners) who where nice to him and try to skip out on payment (ie break the law), and test their patience to see whether or not they decide to involve the police, and if they do, essentially screw him pretty good in the process. I have lived in Japan for 6 years, I respect people, the law and their customs. And surprise! I have never had any trouble. I don't know how long you have been here or how you choose to live, but if you were to start taking your own advice on such matters I would imagine you would not be living here for much longer.
